What does "13er" mean?

There's a double entendre to this catchy name!

Something to toot your horn about is completing the 13.1 miles of the scenic, yet challenging multi-city course in the middle of the summer. Although it is technically half the distance of a marathon, once you've conquered the hill on South Boulder Road, you'll know why we say "It's not HALF of anything!"

If you've been in Colorado for any length of time, you know that reaching the summit of a '14er' means trekking to the top of a mountain more than 14,000 feet above sea level. Its an accomplishment and a bragging right, for sure! The term 14er slips off the tongue around here without a second thought.

So, '13er' was coined in the spirit of reaching great heights and lengths with a Colorado moniker! Come join us, won't you? We believe YOU are up for the challenge!​
